Notes related to use:
A solar cell light is an easy to use source of light, independent from electrical network. The light is a product
that works with solar energy, and its installation does not require mains electricity. The light is intended for
outdoor use. Any other use than the above indicated is prohibited! Lamps cannot be replaced. The light
duration depends very much on the chosen installation location, local weather conditions and sunshine.
Place the light in a location where the solar cells are exposed to as much sunlight as possible. Avoid
locations that
are shady during the day. Install the light in a location where the solar panel is exposed to direct sunlight for
at least 6 hours daily. When placing the light, make sure that there are no light sources, such as street
lamps, that are on during the night. They may hamper the operation of the solar cell light. The light comes
with an integrated dimming sensor, and it works only at night or at twilight. The light does not work in
daylight or if there are distracting light sources nearby! If you want to test the light during the day, press the
power button
and cover the entire area of the solar panel. During the day, the solar panel converts sunlight into energy,
which it stores in the battery. When dusk falls, the light switches on automatically and activates the motion
sensor.
Switching on/off:
Press the power button of the light. The light charges the battery during the day with the help of solar
energy. When dusk falls, the motion sensor is activated and illuminates at 20 lm. If the sensor detects
movement, the 400 lm light will illuminate. When the sensor no longer detects movement, the bright
light automatically switches off after 30 (± 5) seconds and the luminous flux continues at 20 lm. Press
the power button again to switch off the light.
Note:
Shaking and shocks may damage the light. Keep the light away from open fire and sources of heat. The light
is watertight (IP44, protected against splashing of water), but it must not be immersed in water or exposed to a direct jet of water.
Nearby light sources, such as street lamps or other luminaires, may interfere with the operation of the light. It may be necessary to fully
charge the light before using it for the first time. Let the solar cell light charge in a sunny place for 6 to 18 hours.
Short-term exposure to sunlight reduces the duration of illumination. Impurities in the solar panel field may
impair the charging current. Solar powered products need full sunshine to maximise their power. Continuous poor weather (such as rain or
snow, cloud cover, or fog) may reduce the performance of the device and shorten the illumination time.
NOTE! During winter months, we recommend storing the solar cell light in a dry place that is not exposed to sub-zero temperatures. The
light and some of its components cannot withstand frost and may be damaged under such conditions.
To avoid mutual interference, there should be a distance of at least 2 meters between the two sensor lights. Do not
cover the light with any objects, as this will impair the operation of the sensor or shorten the operating distance.
Installation:
- Unpack the lamp.
- Check that the light is not damaged; the light must not be used if any damage is detected.
- Plan the installation location of the light; take sufficient sunlight and possible pre-existing light sources into account
and follow the values concerning the sensor’s operating range:
- Take the conditions, material and foundation of the installation location into account.
- Make sure that the installation location is such that the light does not come off when it is attached.
- Take the base of the light and draw the boreholes at the installation location according to the screw holes.
- If necessary, pre-drill the holes required for installation.
- Now fasten the base of the light with screws and place the luminaire body on the base.
